6. They Are Technically The Only Club In The City Of Manchester
Okay, not literally the only club in Manchester, but the only league club within the Manchester city limits themselves. Manchester United are based in Trafford, which is a metropolitan borough of the Greater Manchester area. Other metropolitan boroughs of Greater Manchester include Oldham, Bolton and Wigan. Funnily enough, the city of Manchester and Trafford are the only two boroughs with a weekly income that is above the national average. Manchester City play their home games at the City of Manchester stadium, which is located in eastern Manchester in an area called Sportcity. The stadium was purpose built for the Commonwealth Games in 2002, and City officially made the move their from Maine Road for the 2003/04 season.
Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
